AJ and his coworker did a really nice job on installing this range hood with an exhaust vent. He had some issue to get the 6’’ hole saw from an online retailer for this specific task and it turned out not work as expected. But anyway, AJ managed to make it work. And the result is satisfying. Would recommend to anyone who needs range hood installed.

Ben was very knowledgeable and professional. Always great with communication and timing was perfect. I’m from a family of home builders and craftsman. Unfortunately my family wasn’t able to help so I reached out to Thumbtack to hire a professional. Ben’s work is exceptional that even my picky dad was very impressed. If you have tile work done then I suggest hiring Ben. I will be hiring him again for my bath surround and possible laundry room renovation in the spring! P.S. I don’t miss the tile from 1983 at all ha!

He did a great job. We had the whole house done, upstairs, downstairs and basement. The carpets looks great, especially the stairs, where there was a lot of dirt. He did the tile and grout in the entryway and kitchen, it looks better than it has in years.

We would DEFINITELY use PFC again! Willis Preston was excellent at communicating....responsive and responsible. His guidance and professional advice was great throughout the whole process. He was patient and thorough with me with all my questions for months leading up to the project start date.
Of all of the contractors of used throughout the remodeling of our home, he was the best of them. The scope was always clear, the workmanship was top notch...the people that worked on the project were great and trustworthy...and Willis was great at talking through any issues that came up (issues with the home, not issues with him or his work). I cannot stress how great it was to have them install hardwood flooring throughout my first floor.
I manage tech/business related projects for a living. His skill and professionalism, fit and finish was top notch!

On my personal home, he trim painted, installed h2o heater, bailed out a roofing contractor that didn't properly flash a chimney, tuck pointed, built hand rails on the deck, installed leaf gutter protection. He has also successfully completed electrical, plumbing, soffit repair, pressure washed and painted gables, on our rental properties. Tom is a talented , honest craftsman.

Brad and his staff delivered as promised and we couldn't be more satisfied with their work. Our basement was completely and professionally remodeled and Brad worked with us every step of the way including changes that we wanted to make during the process. They also made it a point to clean up each day and respected our home which is a nice touch if you have had other contractors that didn't do this in the past. I would highly recommend Brad and Alhi to anyone for any construction needs. Easy and professional to work with and there are no surprises.

I purchased the granite and tile for a kitchen makeover, but was in over my head. A friend recommended Custom Settings. I called Shaun and he was able to get me installed on time and on budget. It looks great and I will be working with him on a future project. Thanks again Shaun!

Dan installed kitchen backsplash for using glass tiles in a subway design. The project took about one and a half days. On the second day, it snowed! However, Dan arrived to our home to complete the grouting as promised. I was impressed by Dan's dedication, professional behavior and craftsmanship. We are very happy with our new backsplash and would recommend Dan to our friends!

Gary was very willing to take on any project I would throw at him. We had our master bathroom completely remodeled. From the drywall to the tile and a little bit of plumbing. Gary never bated an eye and jumped right in. He broke down what we needed and he even went with me to make sure I got all the correct stuff. He was very trust worthy while we were at work and each day after work we saw step by step progress. He was neat and payed attention to detail very well. While doing the shower he recommended things and we worked well together to complete the tile and shower floor. Once he finished and completed everything we wanted. He suggested tips and tricks on things I had to wrap up like anchoring the vanity and installing the plumbing for the toilet and faucets. Overall I would definitely recommend him to help complete any project or task you have around the house.

MR. Phelps came to my house and spent about 15 minutes looking at what I needed done. He verbally estimated $75 for the job and we agreed he would do the work the next day. Since we did not have anything in writing he could not get a hold of me to tell me he would not be there at 10:30 a.m. as agreed. We he did find my number he called at 1:50 and said he would be there soon. He finally showed at 4:00.
He did the job and decided to return the next day to put finishing touches and clean up. He was on time this time.
I was not able to be home by the time he finished and my wife paid him. He charged $100 for the work, which was satisfactory and he did do more than we had discussed. However, he also charged a $50.00 "consultation fee" for the approximately 15 minutes he spent looking at what needed to be done. For this reason I cannot give him the 5 star rating requested and I will find someone else if I decide to do the other bathroom.
I also spent approximately 45 minutes doing additional cleanup of dried grout and caulk on the tiles walls around the tub.

Look them up online and get service the way it should be! They rock!

Ken Witt did an amazing job on enlarging and redoing our entire shower area. He was completely trustworthy, neat, and precise. We would use him again in a heartbeat for any future remodeling. He also laid ceramic tile in the bathroom. Perfect grout lines; great work. Love the finished product.

Chris and his crew did a great job on cleaning the tile and grout on our kitchen floor. They did the grout color as well and it turn out great. They were very though and really cared about doing the job rite. After finished with the job Chris was still looking over the job and said he wanted to make sure it was perfect cause he didn't want to put his name on it unless it was. His pricing was about the same with the competition but is a local business and did a great job I always recommend hiring a local company over a franchise if there credible. They are credible and I recommend them for another job.

Q & A

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on Thumbtack.

How much does it cost to get tiling done?

You can install tiling on your floors, walls, counters, kitchen backsplash, outdoor patio and shower — to name a few places. Tile is beautiful, easy to clean, durable, and resilient against kids and pets. The national average for tile installation cost ranges between $490 and $750. Often, tile installation specialists quote a price per square foot for installation. Costs can increase if you want the pro to supply the tile instead of ordering it yourself. Other factors that can increase cost include specialized installation with a unique design that will require more labor to install.

Prep work will also affect tile installation costs. Demolition of the existing floor, counter or backsplash takes time and energy that will be reflected in the price. Necessary repairs, such as a sub-floor that needs bolstering before tile flooring can be installed, will also increase costs. For tile showers, one example of tile installation cost may be approximately $25 per square foot including all materials and labor. Average tile installation costs for backsplashes may run anywhere from $10 to $40, depending on the materials selected and the amount of labor required. The larger the area where tile is being installed, the lower the price per square foot will likely be. For example, a flooring pro may charge approximately $3.50 per square foot for wood-look tile installation in an area ranging between 6 feet by 24 feet and 8 feet by 48 feet.

How much does it cost to tile a shower?

The cost of tiling a shower depends on two main factors: the size of the shower and the quality of the tiles. In general, most professional tilers charge an average of $25 per square foot of tiled area and the national average cost for a tile installation project is $490-$750. The tiles themselves are the greatest variable; the cost depends on their size, shape, pattern and manufacturer. For example, tile purchased at a volume discount from a big-box store cost far less than tiles made in small batches by an artisan ceramics shop. Prices can range from as little as $1 to $50 or more per square foot of tile. Other factors that will drive up the total tile installation cost are grout and mortar, speciality tiles like bullnose caps or soap holders, and surface prep materials, especially if drywall needs to be replaced before the tile can be installed. Many tile installers will also remove and haul away any old materials from an existing shower installation.

How much does it cost to tile a bathroom?

Tile installation costs are a key part of your bathroom remodel costs. The tile you select (which can range from under $2 per square foot to $50 per square foot or more), the demolition and repair work required prior to installation, and the size of the job will all affect cost. You can install tile in the shower, on the counters, on the wall or on the floor. The national average for tile installation cost ranges between $490 and $750. Bathroom tile is easy to clean and durable for daily life. Here are some examples of average bathroom tile installation costs:

Tile installation at $25 per square foot of tiled bathroom area.

A standard tub and shower combo requires tiles for approximately 60 inches of length. Calculate wall height and add 30 to 36 inches of tub width for the walls at the head and foot of the tub. If the tile walls are 6 feet to 8 feet high, in this example, the tile installation costs would run about $2,000. Price includes materials.

Tile installation on a 3-foot by 5-foot regular tub and shower walls with an 8-foot ceiling: $1,450. Price includes materials.

Tile installation on a 3-foot by 5-foot regular tub and shower walls with a 10-foot ceiling: $1,650. Price includes materials.

How much does it cost to install a ceramic tile floor?

Tile installation costs for ceramic floors depend on the type of tile you select. You can purchase tile that sells for under $2 per square foot or tile that costs $50 per square foot — or more for artisanal and hand-painted tiles. The cost of labor to install a tile floor will also depend on the tile you select. It is far less labor-intensive to install a white 12-inch by 12-inch square tile than a 2-inch by 2-inch hexagonal tile with a distinct pattern. That extra time and energy equates to a higher per-square-foot installation cost. For example, a flooring pro may charge approximately $3.50 per square foot for labor to install wood-look tile in an area ranging between 6 feet by 24 feet and 8 feet by 48 feet. That same pro may charge $6 or more per square foot for a more intricate pattern, or a smaller space. Some installers may charge a minimum day rate for ceramic tile floor installation, such as $340 minimum per day, to cover business expenses and employee wages. If you’re looking to reduce costs, removing your existing flooring and handling any repairs needed can help eliminate prep work costs. Prep work may be charged per hour and could cost anywhere from $25 to $80 per hour or more, depending on the region and the type of repair work necessary.

How much does it cost to install tiles in a kitchen?

One of the most common kitchen upgrades is installing decorative backsplash tiles in the space between the counters and cabinets. It’s a chance for homeowners to get creative while also protecting the kitchen walls from splashes and stains. Like all tiling projects, kitchen tile project costs depend on the tiles you choose, installation materials such as grout and mortar, and any surface materials, like replacement backer board. The national average for a tiled kitchen backsplash is $490-$750. In general, pricing averages $10-$40 per square foot for installation, not including tile. Some professional tile installers have a minimum day rate for small projects, which averages $350.
